Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2001 Christies in London held the auction Important Portrait Miniatures including works from the, which included the work A young gentleman, facing left in double-breasted blue coat with gilt buttons, white waistcoat, salmon-coloured under-waistcoat and knotted white cravat with pleated lace jabot, forward-combed grey-powdered hair; cloud and sky background by Thomas Hazlehurst. It changed hands for a price of GBP 1,116.25 (€ 1,776.31) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Hazlehurst - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A young boy, facing left in blue coat, white shirt with frilled collar, long curling fair hair, which sold at auction in May 2002 for GBP 3,585.00 (€ 5,614.16).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2001 führte Christies in London die Auktion Important Portrait Miniatures including works from the durch, in der auch die Arbeit A young gentleman, facing left in double-breasted blue coat with gilt buttons, white waistcoat, salmon-coloured under-waistcoat and knotted white cravat with pleated lace jabot, forward-combed grey-powdered hair; cloud and sky background von Thomas Hazlehurst zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 1.116,25 (€ 1.776,31) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Thomas Hazlehurst mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A young boy, facing left in blue coat, white shirt with frilled collar, long curling fair hair beobachtet, die im Mai 2002 für GBP 3.585,00 (€ 5.614,16) versteigert wurde.
